Is Your Forest Clean?
The sun shines through the tree trunks and foliage, creating beautiful patterns on the forest floor. The morning dew still lingers on the moss, dampening the toe of your boot. A clear day invites you to fill your lungs with fresh air – air that the forest itself helps keep clean.
The young trees in a logging area from a couple of years ago are growing well and thriving. On another plot, the trees are already ready for pre-commercial thinning. It is time to get to work and start the chainsaw.
Have you ever considered whether your chainsaw is lubricated in a way that protects your forest and its immeasurably valuable cleanliness? A chainsaw needs regular lubrication to operate properly, and there are many different options available. However, widely used mineral- and waste-oil-based lubricants are not a good solution due to their toxicity. In addition to causing direct health risks to the user, they can contaminate nature and groundwater.
That is why it is worth exploring a new generation of lubricants – non-toxic, biodegradable, plant-based lubricants that are safe for both the environment and human health. Lubricants made from rapeseed and canola oils also provide long-lasting performance and help protect the guide bar and chain from wear.
EKO 100 lubricants are not made from food-grade oils. Instead, they are part of the circular economy, following the principles of using renewable and biodegradable raw materials and making use of raw materials unsuitable for food production by turning them into new products. The next time you purchase chain oil, make sure it is naturally produced, non-toxic, and biodegradable: EKO 100 -chain oil.
